bloxlink/bloxlink

Roblox Verification bot written in Python. Open-source as of 12/19/2020.

Bloxlink

‼️	Bloxlink is currently undergoing a full rewrite; please do not contribute large features to this codebase as I do not intend on changing it too much.

Roblox Verification made easy! Features everything you need to integrate your Discord server with Roblox.

Dependencies

• Python 3.8+
• MongoDB
• Redis
• Requirements file

Configuration

Configuration files

First, rename config.py.example to config.py. Edit the config.py file. Some values, the "secrets" or "tokens", can be optionally saved as environmental variables instead. Valid secrets which can be saved as environmental variables are found in the secrets.py file.

Environmental variables have priority over the config file!

Constants

Some options which aren't required to be changed are in the constants.py file.

Image Server

The Bloxlink Image Server is required to run in order for some of Bloxlink's functionality to work. Run the instance, then put your server URL (could just be localhost) in the config.py file. Make sure the auth used for the Image Server is the same as in your config file. These values can also be environmental variables.

Intents

The Members Privileged Intent is required for the bot to function. This can be toggled on your Developer Dashboard unless your bot reached over 100 servers.

Setup

$ git clone https://github.com/bloxlink/Bloxlink
$ cd Bloxlink
[run image server]
[change the configuration]
$ python3.8 -m pip install -r requirements.txt
$ python3.8 src/bot.py

Disclaimer

We do not provide support for self-hosting! This package has been made open-source to aid with contributions, not so you can run your own Bloxlink for private use. If something breaks or there's a vulnerability in a version you use, then you're on your own.

For this reason, we recommend using the official hosted bot at https://blox.link which is given regular updates.

Also, keep in mind that we use the AGPL-3.0 License, which means you're required to keep your local version open-source and state all changes that you have made to it.

bloxlink's Issues

help

how do i connect redis and rethink db.

the error is thjis:
Unable to connect to Database: Could not connect to rethinkdb:28015. Error: [Errno 8] nodename nor servname provided, or not known. Retrying with a different host
and it keeps sapmming. help please.

Further module separation

Given that I didn't expect https://github.com/bloxlink/Bloxlink/blob/master/src/resources/modules/roblox.py to be so incredibly long, this can be broken up into other modules.

• A module for anything bind related.
• The roblox methods/classes broken up into a folder called "roblox" which contains the classes and methods in separate files.

Make a separate "Premium" module

Premium logic is mostly in utils.py which feels very off. It should be in an isolated module, and !transfer should have some of its logic moved to the premium module.

Rewrite Trello card creation/editing

This affects the !bind, !unbind, !settings, and !guestrole commands... currently, the same logic is applied separately to these commands in multiple places which will just introduce bugs later on. This should be handled by the Trello module ONLY.

Bug: Bloxlink "Restrict" Does Not Restrict Discord Roles

The application command /restrict add for users of the restricted discord_role can still /verify with Bloxlink.

Rewrite the guild cache handling

The current method of caching guild settings sucks. A rewrite is needed.

The new guild cache:

• is updated by !settings
• stored in redis

Suggestion: Do not kick for AgeLimit if user is unverified

My Discord is setup so that users enter a "staging area" where they can only see a verify channel, and very little other info (they cannot chat at all) -- I would prefer a user to be kicked only after linking their Roblox account, if it is lower than ageLimit
I had to remove agelimit due to it auto-kicking people that are not yet verified.
